 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

 See Danger No. 1 on page 1.

LEATHER COVERING ON THE PILLOW, THE BACK CUSHION AND THE UNIT

Wipe these areas with a soft, dry cloth.  
(Do NOT use cloths containing any kind of chemical, etc.)
If the leather is particularly dirty, dampen with liquid soap and brush the surface. Wipe with a cloth dampened with water. Allow 
to dry naturally. 
(Do NOT use a hair dryer to try to dry the surfaces more quickly.)
Wearing of denim, colored, patterned or other clothing with a tendency to fade should be avoided during use, as it could lead to 
discoloration of the leather.
Please do NOT use thinners, benzine or alcohol.

PIPE AND PLASTIC AREAS

1 Wipe the unit with a cloth that has been soaked in a mild detergent and then thoroughly wring out.
2  Next wipe the unit with a cloth that has been moistened with just water and thoroughly wring  out. 

*Make sure you thoroughly wring out the cloth first when cleaning the controller. 

3 Allow the unit to dry naturally.

Please do NOT use thinners, benzine or alcohol.

COATED FABRIC

1 Wipe the seat fabric with a cloth that has been soaked in a mild detergent solution and then thoroughly wring out.
2  Use a brush to apply a mild detergent to areas where the coated fabric has become particularly soiled. Be careful not to brush 

the fabric too much as this may damage it.

3 Next wipe the fabric with a cloth that has been moistened with just water and then thoroughly wring out. 
4 Allow the fabric to dry naturally.

Please do NOT use thinners, benzine or alcohol.

 TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem

Cause and Remedy

Motor Noises

It sounds and feels like the massage heads are straining to get over wrinkles in the cloth.

The motor groans when it comes under load.

There is excessive noise during Tapping. (The noise is greater at the top of the unit.)

There is a creaking noise when the massage heads are in operation.

There is a rattling sound when the massage heads move up or down.

The belt can be heard rotating.

There is a rubbing sound produced by the massage heads rubbing on the seat fabric.

There is a noise when the backrest cushion moves over the armrest when the seat is reclining.

There is a noise when I sit down.

There is a strange sound when the massage heads move in and out.

When the power switch is turned on there is a humming sound.

Air massage-related sounds. There is a hissing sound of air escaping. There is a humming sound from the pump.

The legrest rattles.

There is operational noise of valves under the seat.

There is an unstable sound when air escapes during the leg stretch.

These sounds are perfectly normal and will not have any effect on the operation of the unit.

The massage heads stop during operation. 

When excessive force is applied to the massage heads during operation, in the interests of safety the massage heads may 

stop moving.

If all markings and buttons on the controller start to flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power switch, wait for 

approximately 10 seconds and then turn the power switch on again. If the massage heads stop again, position yourself so 

that your back is not completely in contact with the backrest.

The massage heads do not come up to the shoulder or neck.

The position of the massage heads is incorrect.  

(See Page 12)

The height of the left and right massage heads is different.

An alternating tapping method is employed, which means that this phenomenon will naturally occur.

There is nothing wrong with the unit. 

It is not possible to recline the unit.
The legrest cannot be raised or lowered.

If the unit encounters an obstacle or if excessive force is exerted on it during operation, in the interests of safety the unit will 

come to a stop.

If all markings and buttons on the controller start to flash, which is extremely unusual, turn off the power switch, wait for 

approximately 10 seconds and then turn the power switch on again. 

Reclining does not take place even though a massage is started in pre-programs.
(The seat does not automatically recline.)

In some cases the seat may not automatically recline depending on the position (angle) of the backrest or the legrest. 

Automatic reclining will not activate when the backrest is reclined to flat position more than massage position and legrest is 

in upper position.

When you use the manual operation only for legs, automatic reclining will not activate.

The backrest does not return to the upright position.

The backrest will not return to the upright position if the timer is activated or the 

 button is pressed. 

(Pressing 

 twice will return the backrest to its original position.) 

(See Page 17)

It is not possible to switch from Swedish and Knead to Hawaiian and Compression.

Switching can be hindered when the user’s body weight is not resting on the massage heads. Shift your weight so that your 

body is contact with the massage heads.

The legrest will not return to its original position.

If the length of the legrest has been extended, the legrest will strike the floor, preventing from returning to its original 

position. Try again after retracting it to its original length.

The unit will not operate at all.

The power cord has been disconnected.  

(See Page 10)

The power switch on the unit has not been turned on. 

(See Page 10)

A Pre-Program button or Manual Operation button hasn’t been pressed after pressing 

.  

(See Pages 12, 14)

The unit has been damaged.

Stop using the unit immediately.

The power cord or power plug is abnormally hot.

Stop using the unit immediately.

 See Warning No. 5 and 13 on page 3.
